I love my modulator, but I don't use it all the time (to avoid confusing, irritating, or desensitizing drivers) -- I just flick it on as appropriate. Modulators are awesome and I highly recommend...

I'm going to add Sta-Bil to my tank at the next fill-up. That's the most critical part of winterizing for me, because I hate cleaning carbs. The other stuff can wait until all chance of ridable days...

I've read conflicting things. Some say 2009 is the last year for the 500, others say 2010. But either way, it's definitely near the end.
